167 Pubs and Bars found in or around Piccadilly Theatre London

Rather than celebrating the life of the newsreader (Jon) famed for his garish ties, this Victorian pub in the heart of Soho is named after the doctor who established that cholera was a waterborne disease - and nothing to do...

If you're familiar with the Slug and Lettuce chain then there are no big surprises for you here, although you may find yourself paying even more for your booze than you normally do in this Soho one. If you're not familiar with...

This is a jolly decent little boozer that's ideal for a quick drink or a longer session (space permitting). Sporting not much more than a jukebox and a small TV, the pub has a great deal more character than many of the more...

Not a lot to report since it was consume- sucked into- taken over by the Slug and Lettuce chain. It's passable, we suppose and as most of the clientele tend to be transients going from one place to another, it's probably not...

There's been a pub on this site for quite a while - we can remember at least one previous incarnation, more traditional, but still one of London's premiere gay pubs. It's always been a friendly and easy going place, and the...

The Red Lion is a fine old oak panelled pub hidden behind Carnaby Street. Despite a small frontage, it's deceptively large with three bars in total, including one upstairs. Our personal preference is for the tiny front bar...

A lively pub at the top end of Berwick Street Market. The surrounding area with the market and shops is still a bit of old London (although changing fast) and this pub is just what most pubs in the area used to be like. There...

Any pub called the Shakespeare's Head in an area as touristy as Carnaby Street would just have to be an olde worlde building with leaded glass windows and true to form, this one is. It hasn't changed at all in recent years. The...

De Hems is a popular pub for people to meet when out for a night on the town. Named after a Dutch sailor, who bought the place in the late 19th Century, it wavered in our affections after a change of ownership diluted the...

Spirit Group, the company behind the 'TJ Bernard' pub chain, seem to have got it into their heads that its a good idea to make an increasing number of their pubs virtually identical. Probably something to do with establishing a...

If you go into a Nicholson's pub and don't find an opulent Victorian interior, you should be disappointed. But don't worry, you definitely won't be disappointed here - the fixtures and fittings are everything you would expect...

The Red Lion is an old-style traditional pub. It's small, has great beers and a stunning interior. This is a great pub to come to when you are out and about in the West End and fancy a quiet pub - unfortunately, the world and...

This place hasn't really changed in decades (except for the landlord's retirement). Famous for being famous, small, crowded and one of the few exceptions to our rule that all pubs we include serves pints - they only serve...

This is a fairly unremarkable addition to the P&P chain. There is little of interest that happens here. However, where this pub really excels is as a consistent alehouse in an inconsistent area (Soho). It is also an...

Although it feels like it's been there for years, this one is a comparatively new pub. A decade ago, Hall & Woodhouse took the wine bar on the site and did their best to make it look like a pub with a bit of history. So,...

Speakeasy's and Soho go together like ale and pork scratchings. For a warren of entertainment, vice and danger (like the one sandwiched between Oxford Street and Shaftesbury Avenue), the drinking dens...

Apart from the odd lick of paint here and there, this pub has not changed much over the years. No bad thing in this area, where you only have to turn round for ten seconds and yet another style bar has opened up to cater for...

Nothing out of the ordinary here - it's the usual, somewhat pricey, ABO experience. Although it does get pretty crowded in the evening, especially towards the weekend, and noise levels rise correspondingly.

This cosy, back-street boozer cleverly pulls off the trick of acting like it's in a quiet part of town, while the reality is you can almost hear the buzz of Piccadilly Circus traffic from the bar. On our visit, we were...

Crown & Two Chairmen is a pub we haven't visited for ages as our last experience left us a bit cold. That said, it now feels like there's new management in and they're doing a sterling job with an excellent selection of...

Tucked away down a side street around the back of Piccadilly Circus, we can't say this pub's got a lot going for it beyond its relative obscurity. Drinkable beer combined with its isolated location means it's worth hunting down...
